Surface Modification and Superhydrophobicity

This cluster of papers focuses on the advances in superhydrophobic surface technology, including bioinspired design, wetting and spreading behavior, self-cleaning coatings, and applications in oil/water separation. The research explores nanotextured surfaces, bioinspired materials, the role of surface roughness, and strategies for creating liquid-repellent surfaces.
